Meteorite Jade Scandal

Chapter 43 - Caterpillar God



"This is impossible, Lord Jack! We also have family in our realm. There is no way we will stay here forever!" Yushen said, snapping a little.

"On behalf of the leader of the 3 realms, I beg of you, Zhang Yushen!" Lord Jack's voice, sounded soft but also firm.

​​

"But, Your Majesty, we also have to take care of the big company owned by the Zhang family. Thousands of workers depend on us," said Yushen, returning.

"My apologies in advance, Yushen. Zhang Sifeng is currently in an unstable state. At any time his internal organs could suddenly malfunction like yesterday." Lord Jack explained, a look of regret on his handsome face.

Yushen was stunned to hear that. "What? What do you mean, Your Majesty?"

"It takes Meteorite Jade to revive the dead. And Meteorite Jade is stored millions of years in the Illusory Mountain. No one has been able to find that special stone, Yushen.

"So, the power of the 18 strongest Gods is only to give him temporary life. Until the time comes, we will try to find a way to bring Sifeng to life completely." Lord Jack spoke again.

Yushen's legs suddenly felt weak. Yushen fell to his knees, his eyes welling up with tears. Why did this have to happen to his brother?

Supposedly, this should be a nice vacation for Sifeng. But in fact, this is a disaster for Sifeng.

What should Yushen tell their father? Yushen couldn't even imagine if Sifeng disappeared before Yushen. Yushen was really sorry. If only Yushen had not found out about his lover, Wu Zhishu, Yushen would definitely not have come to this place. And Sifeng certainly wouldn't be so badly injured. Yushen is sorry.

"Calm down, Yushen! Trust us! We will save Sifeng no matter what." It's Gil's voice.

Gil helped Yushen to his feet. However, Yushen pushed Gil's hand away from his arm.

"When was it? Explain when it was!" Yushen shouted, loudly. His hands clenched into fists as if to punch anyone who wanted to touch Yushen.

"At most 18 months." The voice of Lord Jack, who understood that Yushen was asking how long Sifeng would survive with only the loan help of the 18 powerful Gods.

Yushen's tears could not be held back any longer. Yushen dashed out, throwing the jars that blocked his path. Yushen was really angry.

***

How did Yushen deal with this situation? How did Yushen explain to his father about this?

***

Zhang Yushen's tears couldn't be held back anymore after hearing all the explanations from Lord Jack.

Yushen dashed out of the room, throwing the jars in his way. Yushen was really furious at this point. Tears continued to flow without Yushen's will.

Yushen kept running, without any direction or purpose. Very far from the magnificent palace. This was indeed a foreign place for Yushen. But, for now, Yushen felt that he couldn't look Sifeng in the eye, in this condition.

How will Sifeng react when he hears all this? Yushen really didn't know what he would and should do about all this complicated matter. All Yushen could do at this point was to calm himself down. Perhaps if his heart and mind were calm, Yushen could find a solution.

After getting tired of running, Yushen Koni sat down beside a large rock. A light breeze brushed Yushen's straight hair. Yushen looked up at the sky, pointing his hand at the sky as if he was picking stars.

"Do you know, A-Feng? If a star can indeed grant a wish, I will try to pick one star for you. Begging a thousand lives for you because you are my only brother, A-Feng."

Yushen muttered, leaning his shoulder against the boulder. Yushen began to close his eyes, wishing this was all just a dream. After Yushen woke up later, he wished he had returned to Zhang's main residence, and had never traveled in Guangzhou, which led Yushen to this Land of Gods.

Suddenly, Yushen felt a gentle touch against his skin. The hand held Yushen's head which was already very dizzy. The soft hand rested Yushen's head on the owner's petite shoulder.

Yushen didn't want to open his eyes. He knew that the owner of that soft hand must be Zhishu. It was Zhishu who had been Yushen's place to lean on all this time. When Yushen was in the most difficult time, there was always that beautiful woman accompanying him. And right now, Yushen wished that the woman beside him was Wu Zhishu, his lover.

"You know, Xiao Shu? I miss you so much. I came to this place and sacrificed a lot just to find you, Xiao Shu. So, please don't leave again! Stay here with me!" said Yushen, still with his eyes closed.

There was no answer from the figure beside Yushen. The woman just continued to gently stroke Yushen's hair. This made Yushen very comfortable. Finally, Yushen fell asleep on that person's shoulder.

***

A few moments later, Yushen felt that someone had accidentally put something in his ear. Yushen woke up, feeling something running around his ear.

"Aakkhh! What is this?!" Yushen shrieked, sounding very loud.

Yushen threw away the animal that was crawling in his ear, and which had made his dream disappear.

"Hahaha... you sleep like the dead, Yu Ge! Only that God Caterpillar managed to wake you up."

The voice of a young man laughing while squatting before Yushen.

"A-Feng! How dare you, huh?!" Yushen grabbed Sifeng's hair roughly, just like usual. "Why did you come here, huh?!" Yushen snapped, coming back.

Sifeng didn't answer. Sifeng threw Yushen's hand, which was in his hair. Then, Sifeng ran towards Vin, who was already waiting for him to play God's game, perhaps.

Sifeng turned around only to say, "Oh yeah, poor Mermaid Sharon, Gege! She's been sitting still because she didn't want to wake you up."

Hearing Sifeng's words just now, made Yushen immediately turn to his side. Really! Yushen didn't realize that Mermaid Sharon was there earlier. So, the one that Yushen had been relying on earlier was Mermaid Sharon? Wasn't the figure of Wu Zhishu as Yushen had hoped from earlier?

"I'm sorry, Yushen! I just didn't want to wake you up," said Mermaid Sharon while occasionally biting her lower lip.

Yushen put on a deadly smile to attract the attention of everyone around him. "Thank you Mermaid Sharon!"

"For ...?"

"Yes, for everything you've done to me so far," Yushen continued.

"I didn't do anything," Mermaid Sharon said, stuttering.

Really! This was very difficult for the beautiful Mermaid self. Princess Sharon had never felt this nervous. Come on, Princess Sharon! He's just a mortal, why are you this nervous, um? thought Princess Sharon.

"Yes, I just wanted to thank you," Yushen said again, still with that deadly look and smile that belonged to him.

In the dining room, the 18 strongest Gods had gathered. There was a massive banquet at this time. They sat at three long tables. There were various kinds of flowers for the Gods, various meats for the Bear King and of course there was food for mortals as well.

Sifeng sat next to Yushen. They were among the Dream King, Bear King, Fairy Princess, Physician King and the others. I don't know since when they were so close like now.

Yushen took out a lighter from his trouser pocket. Yushen switched it on and off, and lit the lighter again. And so on. Yushen really wanted to smoke a few cigarette butts right now. Why doesn't anyone here have cigarettes? Yushen thought.

Sifeng threw away Yushen's lighter suddenly.

Yushen was obviously surprised by Sifeng's sudden movement.

"What's wrong, A-Feng?" Yushen asked, looking a little panicked at his brother's strange behavior.

Sifeng didn't answer. Sifeng's body seemed to tremble. Cold sweat dripped from Sifeng's body at this time.

Yushen, who saw his brother's strangeness, was now very panicked.

"What's wrong with you, A-Feng? Are you not feeling well right now?" Yushen asked again.

However, Sifeng couldn't answer yet. He looked really scared after seeing the fire earlier.

The Fairy Queen who was also in the room, acted quickly. The Fairy Queen immediately played her harp. It sounded so melodious that it could make all the creatures in the room drowned in the strains of the melody being played.

The fairies have a specialty in their harp playing. They can entertain or even kill with just their music. It was according to the will of the fairies themselves.

After playing the harp for a while, the Fairy Queen now turned to Sifeng.

"Have you calmed down, Zhang Sifeng?" asked the Fairy Queen. She was also included in the 18 Gods who saved Sifeng yesterday.

Sifeng nodded after taking a deep breath and exhaling slowly. Sifeng kept repeating the activity to stabilize his emotions.

Yushen still looked worried. Yushen patted Sifeng on the shoulder to confirm. "Are you really okay, A-Feng?" Yushen asked again.

"I don't know, Gege. I was so scared when I saw the fire," replied Sifeng, wiping the sweat off his face.
